dc.descriptionThe HEGRA experiment is an air shower detector system for the study of neutral and charged cosmic rays in the energy range between 500 GeV to 10 PeV. Here we give an overview of how the HEGRA detector is used to search for TeV gamma-radiation associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) registered with the Burst And Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) on board the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory. Furthermore, results of an archival search for GRB radiation above 15 TeV carried out with the HEGRA air shower arrays are shown. We conclude with a summary of the search activities planned for the future.
